Église Sainte-Madeleine de Contis, Catholic church in Contis, France
The Sainte-Madeleine Church stands in the coastal town of Contis, featuring a straightforward facade design with modern architectural elements.
The current church building, inaugurated in 1954, replaced an earlier chapel that German forces destroyed during the occupation in 1942.
The main altar incorporates a millstone, creating a connection between religious practice and the agricultural heritage of the region.
Located in the Landes department along route D41, the church maintains regular religious services for both local residents and coastal visitors.
The Source Ste Madeleine, a fountain near the church, holds local significance for its reputed healing properties for headache relief.
